Zimbabweans poured onto the streets to celebrate the resignation of 93-year old strongman Robert Mugabe who has been in power for 37 years.
Kenyans on social media have been weighing in on the development, congratulating citizens of Zimbabwe and wishing them all the best as they chart a new course.
''Viva Zimbabwe viva!'' Vincent Ochoki wrote on Facebook.
''Oh my God.... Zimbabwe is free.'' John Ndirangu posted.
''Kenya will also be free.'' Megan Nanjala posted.
The military takeover of Zimbabwe was triggered by indications that Mugabe was grooming his extravagant wife for the presidency after firing his vice president Emmerson Mnangagwa.
Mr. Mnangagwa, known as the crocodile for his ability to reinvent, is expected to take over power.
